Answer:

The answer is: y = 2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given point: (3, -1)

Given equation: y = 2/3x - 5, which is in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Parallel lines have the same slope. Use the point slope form of the equation with the point (3, -1) and substitute:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-1) = 2/3(x - 3)

y + 1 = 2/3x - 6/3

y + 1 = 2/3x - 2

y = 2/3x - 3

Proof:

f(3) = 2/3(3) - 3

= 6/3 - 3

= 2 - 3

= -1, giving the point (3, -1)

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!!  :-)

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

That is your answer .

First you do 4x-3+3=2x+7+3

then,4x=2x+10,then

subtract 2x from both side

4x-2x=2x+10-2x

simplify

2x=10

divide both sides by 2 2x/2=10/2

simplfy and you get x=5

Hope this helps :)

First we need to figure out how long YK is and the best way to do this is to set up a proportion

34         x
----- = ------
95.2      168

then cross multiply and divide

34 times 168=5712/95.2=60

then add the two parts of the line

60+34=94

X is 94 cm

I hope I've helped!
